The St.Petersburg State University opens seven full-time
positions of various level (see below) for advanced
teaching within the new Mathematics and Theoretical
Computer Science program. The Scientific Council of this
program is headed by Stanislav Smirnov.

(We encourage to apply to all appropriate positions,
because the formal applications are processed separately.)

The program is very selective, admission is limited to
50 top students per year, the first three enrollments
(2015, 2016 and 2017) are first rate. In particular,
more winners of the all-Russian mathematical Olympiad
joined our program than any other similar program
in Russia.

Applicants are expected to have a strong research record
and to be able to teach in Russian (teaching experience
in English is an advantage). The winners are expected to
carry out research of high professional standard, to teach,
as well as to perform customary administrative duties such
as advising students, participating in committees,
organizing admissions, etc. The teaching load is up to
6 academic hours (=4.5 astronimic hours) per week for full
professors, and 8 academic hours (= 6 astronomic hours)
for associate and assistant professors.

Initial contract is normally signed for a period of up
to five years, and can be renewed by further 5 year terms.
Applicants from outside St.Petersburg will get one-time
moving compensation.

In addition to the formal application sent according to
the above document, all applicants are invited to send a
copy of their CV to
Maria Rossomakhina (secretariat@chebyshev.spb.ru)
mentioning any detail that could be relevant to the work
of the selection committee, such as, for instance, the
names of PhD students they supervised, if any, etc.

The minimum requirements for the positions are as follows:

Position 1 (Professor)

- the degree of D.Sc. (Doctor of Science) or habilitation
or any degree acknowledged by Russian Federation as a D.Sc.
degree;

- at least five refereed publications indexed
simultaneously in MathSciNet and Scopus in 2012-2017;

- at least five years of experience in research or teaching
(excluding Ph.D. studies but including work on research
projects/grants, even unpaid).

Position 2 (Associate Professor/Docent)

- the degree of Ph. D. (foreign) or Cand. Sci. (Russian);

- at least five refereed publications indexed
simultaneously in MathSciNet and Scopus in 2012-2017;

- at least three years of experience in research or teaching
(excluding Ph.D. studies but including work on research
projects/grants, even unpaid).

Position 3 (Associate Professor/Docent)

- the degree of Ph. D. (foreign) or Cand. Sci. (Russian);

- at least four refereed publications indexed
simultaneously in MathSciNet and Scopus in 2012-2017;

- at least three years of experience in research or teaching
(excluding Ph.D. studies but including work on research
projects/grants, even unpaid).

Position 4 (Assistant Professor/Senior Teacher)

- higher education (Master degree);

- at least three refereed publications indexed
simultaneously in MathSciNet and Scopus in 2012-2017;

- at least one year of experience in research or teaching
(excluding Ph.D. studies but including work on research
projects/grants, even unpaid).

As mentioned above, responsibilities include lectures and
seminars, advising BSc, MSc and PhD students. Typical basic
subjects that successful applicants are expected to teach
range over all mathematics and theoretical computer science.

Applications and questions on formalities should be sent
to personnel officer Olga Ivanova. Less formal questions
should be sent to Maria Rossomakhina who can also provide
templates for the formal documents to be submitted to the
personnel officer.
